A hearty and comforting dish featuring a creamy beef gravy served over tender pasta.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the beef to achieve a good sear.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Stir in the red pepper flakes and Worcestershire sauce, mixing well.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the spice level.
Pour in the milk, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze.
Use a wooden spoon to gently scrape up any browned bits for added flavor.
In a small bowl, whisk the flour with a bit of milk until smooth, then stir into the skillet.
Whisking the flour with milk prevents lumps in the sauce.
Simmer the sauce until thickened, stirring occasionally.
Keep the heat low to prevent the sauce from scorching.
Cook the egg noodles in a medium pot of boiling water according to package instructions.
Salt the water generously for flavorful noodles.
Serve the noodles topped with the beef gravy and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
